To schedule material supply intelligently and meet the production demand, studies concerning logistics planning problem are essential. In this paper, we consider based on scenario that more than one vehicle may visit each station in batches. The primary objective is to satisfy demands time windows, followed by with minimum vehicles travel as optimization objective. We construct a multi-objectiv...

The textile and clothing industry generates much pollution and consumes a large amount of resources. Improper uses and disposal of clothing products make the problems much more severe. Fast fashion products shorten the valid lifecycle and generate more waste than regular clothing products. Considering the features of fashion products, a system of a rent-based closed-loop supply chain is develop...

Purpose: Combined the current situation with the development trend of reverse logistics, the article focus on the research of Internet of Things application in the reverse logistics information management, starts with the study of reverse logistics information system, and describes the system structure and system process in applying Internet of Things in reverse logistics information management...

• Developed multi-objective optimisation model for sustainable CLSC network problem. Considered SCs complexity, price-sensitive demand and consumer’s incentives. Data collected from a leading European household appliance company was used. Evidenced the positive effects of incentive pricing on returned goods. Provided multiple trade-off solutions decision makers. Closed-loop supply chains (CLSCs...

This paper considers supply chain design in green logistics. We formulate the choice of an environmentally conscious chain design as a multi-objective optimization (MOO) problem and approximate the Pareto front using the weighted sum and epsilon constraint scalarization methods as well as with two popular genetic algorithms, NSGA-II and SPEA2. We extend an existing case study of green supply ch...

Closed-loop supply chain systems are increasingly attracting attention because of cost competition, resource constraints and environmental issues. Electronic products are of particular concern due to short lifecycles and hazardous material used in production. We formulate the closed-loop product lifecycle system with stochastic dynamic programming methodology. By applying the reverse logistics ...

Along with forward supply chain organization needs to consider the impact of reverse logistics due to its economic advantage, social awareness and strict legislations. In this paper, we develop a system dynamics framework for a closed-loop supply chain with fuzzy demand and fuzzy collection rate by incorporating product exchange policy in forward channel and various recovery options in reverse ...

Reverse logistics is a modern field of consideration, research and study, providing helpful information on the operation of the closed-loop supply chain. Although the starting point of this field is traced back to the early 90’s, no standard method has been suggested, neither prevailed. The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new approach on the study of reverse logistics. It is actually a ...

Feedback controls are usually designed to achieve multiple and often conflicting performance goals. These incommensurable objectives can be found in both time and frequency domains. For instance, one may want to design a control system such that the closed-loop system response to a step input has a minimum percentage overshoot (Mp), peak time (tp), rise time (tr), settling time (ts), tracking e...

Recently, with the environmental crisis, Green supply chain management (or GSCM), and in particular closed loop supply chain model, has received considerable attention by researchers. Closed loop supply chain model aims at reduction of waste and generating profit for enterprises through integrating forward and reverse logistics. Unfortunately, there is limited research on general models for clo...
